Travels in Spain

The food in Granada as is the case throughout the whole of Andalucia is both delightful and utterly unique. There is definitely a hint of influence from its Arab ancestry through the use of certain spices and flavourings, particularly true of the desserts from this region. The tapas in Granada is note worthy indeed and allows you to sample anything and everything!

Eating in Granada. Tapas anyone?

Many of the dishes benefit from the geographical location of Granada by consisting of the fresh ingredients grown and produced locally in the area. Fresh vegetables, olive oil, vinegar and salt are prevalent in most dishes specific to Granada, and the dishes most associated with the area are stews and soups. All of course are made with only the freshest of ingredients from the local area.

Antonio Banderas has announced recently that he would like to return to his home country of Spain having spent enough time in Hollywood over the years. The move would be in order for the successful actor to move away from starring roles and be able to concentrate more on directing, in particular movies that as he puts it are “often suffocated by Hollywood.”
